Onmyoji Arena Tips and Tricks – How to Play as Kingyo, The Goldfish Master!

Based on the review of Onmyoji Arena. Today, we are going to give you a review about a character on the game called Kingyo.

Kingyo is a mage type shikigami that excel in one hitting/burst damaging anything. She is a burst damage mage with a high mobility in the river and stun, it making her perfect in the mid lane. Her passives will increase her movement speeds even in the early game.

The downside of using Kingyo is only the low health and her skill shots. Although her skill shots won’t be that much of a problem as long as her second skill hits. She is very fun and very easy to play and i recommend you guys that loves a cute looking Japanese girl running around in a battlefield.

Her skill sets are:

Game Preparation

Item

1. Mandala Sutra	(Main MP Regeneration and CD reduction Item)
	Mandala sutra is a great item for any mage, mainly because of its MP regeneration. Cooldown reduction and, a good Ability power bonus, but the thing is its passives. The passives will reduce your MP Consumption to 75% while restoring your MP with each kill. Making it a great early game item.
2. Demonic Boots	(Main Movement Item)
	Demonic boots is useful for its Magic Penetration. Mainly because this item synergy with Kingyo Passives, abling her to deal more damage to tank.
3. Izanami’s Scepter	(Main Burst damage item)
	The reason for buying this item is for the burst damage. Kingyo can start to kill marksman or mage by using this items. It will deal burst damage by 150%+ your magic damage for every 9s you use your skill.
4. Tale of Izumo	(Main Damage Dealer item)
	This item is useful if you want to start killing more people. Samurai can now be kill if you have bought this item.
5 / 6 Eight Trigram / Marsh Moon	(Item Depend on Match Condition)
	You see for the last item, Eight trigram and Marsh moon is useful both. I recommend you guys to get it both in the match. The problem is the order, should you get Eight Trigram first or Marsh Moon first. So here is the jist:Eight Trigram: if your enemies is winning and has more tanks / samurai. Marsh Moon: if you are winning and you want to kill more people in the game.

Onmyodo

For Onmyodo, i use Magic Penetration for more damage on tank in the late game, Cooldown Reduction so that you can spam more spell, Spell Vampire for more survive ability because her ability damage is already so high, but then you can change it with movement speed for more roaming ability.

Kiai for MP restoration in the early game for each time you kill a minion and every seconds making you able to get another item than mandala sutra, Feather Sigil for added damage in the late game for each kill / assist, and lastly Panther Maul for that burst damage, but you can change it to either Purgatory, or Sorcery Star. It is all the same, though sorcery star might be more useful in the game.

Skill Combination

Because Kingyo is a mage type shikigami, i recommend you to take :
Skill 2 first, Skill 3 next, and lastly skill 1 (Passive). Max your skill 2 first and then your skill 1 passives and lastly your 3rd skill stun. Take ultimate whenever you can.

Here is why, Skill 2 is useful for poking in the early game, maximize it in the early game will give you more damage. Another reason to take it because of its low cooldown, with the item mandala sutra, you will be able to spam it every 2 / 3 s. While laning in the mid lane, (Pick mid lane if you can) Try to finish the creeps as soon as you can and go to either top or bottom to help the others. Even a single combo like Skill 3 > Skill 2 will help the team change the flow.

The passives is useful in mid > late game, which is why i recommend you to take it only after you max-ed the second skill. It will gives you a magic penetration up to 25%, added with the item Eight Trigrams she will have more than 60% magic penetration, making her one of the best tank killer ever.

Kingyo is an AOE Mage that can kill plenty of enemies unlike Otengu that can only burst damaging one enemies at a time. However, her skills are skill shots making her skills very hard to aim. but, if you can hit the enemies with your third skill stun then spam everything, from your second skill to Ultimate. Because it will definitely hit your enemies. Lowering their health and even killing them in a matter of second.

Kingyo excel in killing after getting her 3rd item which is the Izanami’s scepter, with it you can start one hitting most enemies from mage – marksman. After getting her 4th item tale of izumo then you can start killing samurai. Her 5th item is Eight trigram for killing tanks, but that doesn’t mean that kingyo can’t contribute in a battle.

In fact, she is one of the best mage to contribute in a team fight. It is because of her long AOE stuns and her ultimate (Gold fish Slams from the sky thingy). Her stuns if time correctly can change the flow of the match, added with her ultimate, she can even kill / assist herself even if she is killed in the middle of the battle, making her one of the most fearful Shikigami in the game. (Try not to die, use flash or even go back to your base and use shift to easily go back to the match).
